  1. Hi, does anyone know if there's a page for Hunter?
  2. Hello! Hopping on this thread a little late here, but I'm from the East Coast and only applied to 3 NYC schools. CUNY Hunter, CUNY Brooklyn, NYU Steinhardt Accepted/ Waitlisted/ Interview/ Rejected Major: Psychology Cumulative GPA: 3.87; CDIS GPA 3.9
  3. That's helpful to know, thanks! Also, just out of curiosity, when did you start the application process and then submit applications? I know the deadlines of certain programs, but I just want to make sure I have a good pace.
  4. Thank you so much for sharing your experience!!! Can't believe I just saw this haha Congrats on getting accepted to so many places! I totally think it was a good idea to go for the more financially sound choice. I'm also working on my personal statement. If I can ask you this if it's not too personal, what did you focus on in your statement/essays? I wanted to write about my experience getting close to children with autism, but I'm kinda scared of being too cliche or cheesy haha. Also, graduate schools don't really offer financial aid like undergraduate schools do, correct?
  5. Hi everyone! I'm new here (pls be gentle?). I know alot of people on here ask "what are my chances," but I'd really appreciate the feedback! I've become really passionate about pursuing speech-language pathology and want to start applying for grad programs fall this year. However, I don't know anyone who wants to be a SLP (except for one girl who has very different circumstances) and don't really know what to expect. I plan on applying mostly to graduate schools in NYC, but am open to other schools relatively close. So far I plan on applying to NYU, CUNY (Hunter, Queens, Lehman), St Johns, Teachers College, Baylors and Touro. So here's what I'm working with when it comes to my stats! - I'm a psych major with a current GPA of 3.8 (I still have 2 semesters left to complete my undergraduate degree but I don't expect my GPA to change since I've gotten my difficult classes out of the way lol) - My relevant experience involves over a year of working at a nonprofit for people with Autism Spectrum Disorder, a few months of volunteering at an aphasia community group, and alot of teaching. - I have some research experience! Although, it's for other topics in psychology, I feel like being comfortable with research is at least good to mention? - My recommendation letters are pretty good, and one will be very strong (I've become close to my supervisor at the nonprofit). - I consider writing to be one of my strong suits so I'm not too worried about my narrative statement. Will be taking the GRE soon, so I don' t have those scores! CONS: I'm a New York resident applying to New York schools, but I've heard that apparently grad programs like taking out-of-state students because of the $$? Yikes? I also don't have shadowing experience and I'm not sure if it's a priority for me to get that done. ALSO, because my university doesn't have a communicative sciences and disorders major or related classes, I took all my prerequisites at 2 different online schools. My grades in those classes are good, but will getting prereqs done online be looked down upon? Any advice and general comments would be super appreciated!! Good luck to everyone else and their studies?
